Kanji Definition Text File & Plugin Idea

#1
HI Tongue.

Anyone have a text file with kanji definitions, somewhat like the "English meanings" section on jisho here: http://jisho.org/kanji/details/%E6%84%8F? If not, anyone know how I can extract that data for the main ~3k kanji and put it in a text file?

Ultimately I wish to append the (jisho) kanji keywords to the source code for the Anki plugin "rtkize" so when I hover over a kanji, all of these definitions come up. I have some experience with C++, so I think that given some dictionary text files in a certain format, I can add the definitions to rtkize code section that lists all the rtk keywords.

For me this'd be really helpful since I currently use mnemonics+RTK keywords to memorize vocab/kanji compounds - if I instead have other, non-RTK keywords for the kanji, then the mnemonics can be more logical.

PS Why can't I make a title with "Anki" in it?

This Google Docs spreadsheet includes the English data from KanjiDic (i.e. what Denshi Jisho uses).

Yes!! Thanks so much!

Here's the .py file for anyone that wants it. Hopefully it works, I'm pretty bad with computers. Anki wouldn't let me upload it there, so I used 4shared. For the noobs out there, just put this file in your Anki plugin folder with all the other plugins and it will run automatically when you open Anki.
